<span>Although I would act cheerful and jovial, my cover could have easily blown if I had gotten too scared of the white men. I would have tried my best not to flinch because of an action that a white man made, and try to finish the classroom. So I wouldn't have had the time to ponder a plan to make the white men leave the classroom or make them do something so they would leave. If that plan failed and if something happened, which would have led to my lessons being exposed, I would act as if I am timid, while deep down inside of me I would have had an outrageous outburst.

I hope this helps! :)
